How does adware infect a computer?

Adware uses a deceptive technique to enter the computer, this technique is called bundling. Software that uses “bundling”, is software known as “Pay-Per-Install” (PPI) or “monetization” software installers. This is installation software where software developers get paid for every install.

The process of the Pay-Per-Install software does not directly disclosure the adware present, it’s hidden by a human psychology trick named Dark Patterns. These Dark Patterns are used to make sure people click through their PPI installation process without noticing what they actually install on their computer.

There is, however, a very small button or a checkbox that might disclosure the presence of the additional adware. Despite that small button, a lot of people do not see the button as they click on to the Next button to install their desired software.

Remove the Otv.engenderbutterfat.com pop-up redirect

Adware is most of the time installed by the computer user itself. Overview the installation and uncheck all items you do not wish to install.

If the Pay Per Install (PPI) software installation has an EULA (end user license agreement), read this EULA to find out what kind of software is offered during installation. It may prevent adware from installing by deselecting or uncheck Adware and Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs).
